1 Corinthians 13:4

---

← 1 Corinthians 13:3	1 Corinthians 13:4 (KJV)	1 Corinthians 13:5 →
And though I bestow all my goods to feed [the poor], and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.	Charity suffereth long, [and] is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,	Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
